Listen, I hate the tipping culture here just as much as everybody else, but the fact is, if you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to go out. Should employees get a decent wage without it, absolutely yes. But they don't right now, and you not tipping isn't going to change that.
I hear a lot of this rhetoric but it sounds like you're just saying this is how it is and I'm going to accept it which I think is a cowards approach. If you want to make change then you have to do something about it by going to restaurants and not tipping you are sending a message. Does it hurt the server? Maybe, but in the end it's not my responsibility to pay them and if more people stop tipping then maybe things will change. With that being said, I don't go out to any places that expect me to tip because I know there are people like you that think I'm evil because I don't want to give my hard-earned money away to someone else for doing their job.
Maybe I should've worded my original comment better, because I never said we should just accept it. I explicitly think we shouldn't accept it by refusing to do business at places that push tipping instead of paying their staff proper wages.
Probably should've led with that.
